ManageEngine AD360 is vulnerable to account hijacking via predictable SSO tokens. Did we exploit it? Yep. Can an attacker exploit you? Not likely. Here's why: bishopfox.com/blog/millise...
A Millisecond of Predictability: Why CVE-2026-11374 Is Hard to Exploit
CVE-2026-11374 is a critical ManageEngine account takeover where the SSO ticket is just a timestamp. Bishop Fox breaks down why it's hard to exploit.

Sometimes a DoS really is just a DoS! Here's a look behind the curtain at the less glamorous side of vuln research, discussing (in mostly laypersons' terms) how we tried in vain to turn a memory corruption bug into full RCE. bishopfox.com/blog/a-crash...
A Crash, Not a Shell: SolarWinds Serve-U CVE-2026-28318
Bishop Fox analyzed CVE-2026-28318, a single-request DoS in SolarWinds Serv-U, chased three RCE paths, and proved each one is a dead end. Patch now.

Here we GOOOOOO...! Successfully reproduced a full root unauthenticated RCE chain against UniFi OS Server 5.0.6 – with devastating impacts depending on what devices it manages. Check out our newest blog post: bishopfox.com/blog/popping...
And another one for y’all! This week I published some research into a perfect 10 arbitrary file read affecting Ubiquiti UniFi controller software. I suspect we’ll have more to say about UniFi in the near future… bishopfox.com/blog/looting...
Looting UniFi Controllers: Detecting and Weaponizing CVE-2026-22557
CVE-2026-22557 is a CVSS 10.0 path traversal in UniFi that lets unauthenticated attackers read controller backups and take over all managed devices.

My team confirmed that recently disclosed Arista NGFW vulnerabilities are fully exploitable! RCE is possible with victim interaction. More details coming soon to our blog: bishopfox.com/blog
Just published a new blog about using LLMs to accelerate patch diffing! We developed a semi-automated analysis workflow and benchmarked four high-impact vulns using a few different Claude models. Check out how they performed!
Vulnerability Discovery with LLM-Powered Patch Diffing
Read our most recent research to see how LLMs can assist in scaling patch diffing workflows, saving valuable time in a crucial race against attackers.
